Why this post "On framing wrinkled, creased, crinkled and dog-eared maps"?  This is because, and as we have mentioned before, many of our posting ideas come from interactions with our Customers.  And it was by way of jest, that a Customer, having finished the custom picture framing consultation for  a couple of brand, new  posters, wistfully asked us: " I don't suppose you'd be able to frame old, crinkly, wavy, damaged, maps"?   The Customer, smiling, explained that she had another picture framing declined to re-frame a large, old map of hers as it was "impossible" to flatten with their dry-mounting method.   We then asked to see the map which the Customer had not yet brought in but had left in the car.
